Sunset Sounds ‘Foster Band Initiative’

Sunset Sounds, the Brisbane spinoff of Falls festiva, is entering its third year and they’ve just announced their new fostering initiative. Basically, they team up a local media publication with a local band, with that publication giving their band editorial love during the month of November. But it’s not all lovely. These bands are actually involved in deadly competition Battle Royal style – or, rather, a spot on the Sunset Sounds line-up. Two spots, in fact. And you get to decide who gets it.

You can cast your vote via the Sunset Sounds website, with voting open between November 1st and Devember 1st. The winning artists will be announced on December 6th. You have the power to make/crush dreams right here. Make sure you check out the bands below and get voting. Why? Because there are some that definitely deserve the spot and others that definitely do not. I won’t say which as I’m not here to bias the competition like some pre-historic bird of prey or anything.

Dates: Wed 5th & Thu 6th January 2011
Venue: Sunset Sounds combining the Garden Stage in the Botanic Gardens and the Riverstage in the City Gardens, Brisbane QLD
Tickets: 18+ event. On sale now from Ticketmaster and Moshtix
